In the case of the GPL, the copyright owner does the rough equivalent of offering a reward to others if they will agree to give something back in return. That something is to share their changes and their derivative works etc. with the world. The MIT license offers a reward to others without requiring them to give back anything. This is really nice if you wish to benefit from the work of others but give nothing back. So amicus_curious, do you wish to benefit from the work of others and give nothing back in return? -- Rahul http://rahul.rahul.net/ _______________________________________________ gnu-misc-discuss mailing list [email protected] http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/gnu-misc-discuss
